Biography

Tom Adelman

Tom Adelman is originally from California. He currently lives with his family outside Princeton, New Jersey.

He has written two books about baseball as well as six books under the pseudonym Camden Joy. His writing as Camden Joy is fiction about rock and roll, usually set in the 1990s, while his baseball books are non-fiction accounts of the 1975 season (culminating in his classic account of the Red Sox v. Reds 7-game World Series) and the 1966 season (and the unbelievable Orioles v. Dodgers series).
